Skills
A Wide Variety of Skills & Services for an Array of Design Projects
I love web design because it is the perfect way for me to use my creativity and logic at the same time. It also gives me the ability to help small businesses thrive and progress with every new advancement in technology. Locally owned “mom and pop” businesses keep our communities unique and familiar – and it makes me smile knowing I’ve helped them make their dreams a success.
My Family
Web Design
You know you need an attractive website that people can find on Google and that works correctly on a cell phone, but you don’t know much more. That’s where I come in. Let’s talk! I’ll get that accomplished with very little effort from you. I am creative and experienced – you can trust me to get the job done right. I also give my clients my cell number and you can text or call me anytime you have questions or problems! Website design start at $1,000.
Logo Design
I specialize in creating unique and visually appealing logos for businesses, organizations, or individuals. Logo design is a crucial aspect of branding as it represents the identity and visual representation of a company or brand. Vector files included. Logo design starts at $350.
Small Business Consulting
I have 10+ years of experience in marketing, design, and social media. If you’re on a tight budget or don’t want to hire a marketing agency, this is a great alternative or stepping stone! We can meet in person and I will help you develop a marketing strategy, find your target audience, give you tips on social media best practices, and teach you how to use online ads. Small business consulting is charged hourly at $100/hour.
Graphic Design
Graphic design services can help businesses improve their image and attract new customers by creating visual content to communicate messages. I can create a wide range of visual communication, including:
marketing materials, posters, newsletters, brochures, signs, and other visual aids to promote or sell a product or service. Graphic design is charged hourly at $50/hr.
Photo Editing
My photo editing services can help photographers and others improve the look of their photos by making adjustments to them. These services include color correction, restoration, retouching, and composition. Photo editing is charged hourly at $50/hr.
PORTFOLIO // WEBSITES

This nonprofit organization was created in honor of Officer Tyler Timmins who lost his life in the line of duty. The board of directors desired a design that incorporated the logo, highlighted Tyler’s sacrifice, introduced the board, and offered information to those interested in donating.
